Bill Withers – "Lean on Me" (1972)

2009/10/10


I went to my yoga class this morning, and I finally think I felt my mind and body were quiet and I did not need to struggle to keep them quiet. So frequently I have been unable to stop the flurry of things I should be doing, concerns, hopes, and fears from flying through my thoughts even when in "Tadasana" in the stillness of a morning yoga class. Today it was no issue. All was quiet.

On the way home I was thinking about how I use to just do yoga at home and it was good, but never quite as satisfying. I use to resist the assistance of others, in yoga and in most things, but I have accepted that sometimes I need help to get where I want to go. My yoga class is just one example. I started humming this classic, "Lean on Me" as I walked home. If we all lean on each other, then we become a forest, right?

(OMG, yoga… Tadasana… forests… perhaps I am a hippie… an intellectual hippie though. Oh and I shower daily, so there!)
